12. She has no real power. |

13. A dictator rules by denying freedoms to his or her subjects. |

and you are correct about the queen, but not becaue of her power, but because she exists in a Constitutional Monarchy where no single person, no matter how long the term of power, has the sole power to dictate the law.
